Moshiri has been reporting from Goma, the city captured by M23 rebels earlier this week. The rebels have vowed to expand their territorial control beyond North Kivu province and even to march on the capital, Kinshasa, more than 1,500km away.

Moshiri, East Africa correspondent, is based in Nairobi, and regularly reports from across Africa.

She has covered some of Al Jazeera English's biggest news stories, including the Tunisian uprising in 2011, conflict in the DRC and the ongoing drought in the Horn of Africa.You can follow Nazanine Moshiri on Twitter @nazaninemoshiri
